How Filmmakers Raise $50K to $1M Without Hollywood
A free masterclass on crowd-equity film financing. The same system filmmakers have used to raise over $3 million for their independent films, while retaining full ownership.
What is Crowd-Equity?
A new film financing model that allows anyone to invest in a film, not just the ultra-wealthy. Filmmakers like Eli Roth, Robert Rodriguez, and Jim Cummings, have used it to raise millions in 4-6 months.
We've raised $1.6 million for our first film without any prior connections to the industry or investors, and have since helped other first-time filmmakers raise $3 million and counting.
What you'll learn:
How crowd-Equity works
Raise $50K to $1M+ by selling percentages in your film to everyday investors, instead of begging gatekeepers or running a donation campaign.
Where the money comes from
How to find and reach retail investors, doctors, founders, business owners, who can comfortably write a $30K+ check into a film they want to be part of.
How to close the check
The conversation that turns an interested investor into a wired commitment, without laurels, a big following, or a famous cast.
